In Youtube
Are my sentences correct?
-In Youtube, you can use the direction keys to backward or forward a video or a drama series in the intervals of three seconds, so that if you find it difficult to understand a certain sentence, you can repeat listening to it until you understand what that character is saying. This is a very effective way to learn the language. |

Backward is not a verb. Forward is a verb, and one of its meanings fits, but I would prefer 'go/move forward in'. It pairs better with 'back up', in my opinion. Everything else is fine. |

-John repeats hearing that he is not handsome. I think the situation here is different. Listening to a song is a conscious action, but hearing other people's comments is just accidental, which might forbid the use of repeat +ing. |

'John keeps hearing' would be the common way to express that.
